Am I weird? Do you do this?!

I read emails and texts over and over again after I've sent them.

I also write reports as part of my job (about 50 pages per report) and I read them over and over again too! This morning I have a day off after a v long and exhausting 2 weeks of working into the night most days to meet some deadlines, so thought I'd relax with a coffee and easy morning. I spent my morning re-reading all my reports from the last month (🤔🥴)

Weirdly I find it v calming! (occasionally much less calming / v frustrating when I see errors in what I sent or submitted 😠)

Am I really weird!!? I can't imagine other people do this! But do you? Please tell me I'm not alone in my weirdness here!!!

Haha can I join your club! High functioning, chaotic secret introvert' describes me very well. Although I do think chronic time-waster/procrastinator would also have to be included...

You certainly can (although @SoreHeadInBed should probably be president seeing as how she’s the one who’s outed us all)! Yeah, I did think I should have squeezed procrastination in there somewhere, esp given the time we’ve probably all spent today reading and re-reading our own posts on this thread 😂

I stare at calendar inputs. It inputs the info again into your brain and is calming. Don't stress about it.
